The alloys were traded near $ 2742 a ounce, after Trump said he would impose customs duties on steel, aluminum and brass imports without giving details about the size of these fees. Investors focus on the potential effects of comprehensive fees, which, if approved, could threaten a commercial war and increase demand for safe haven assets. The dollar rose after Trump’s remarks, which limited the rise of gold, often moving in the opposite direction of the dollar.
